Benthic fauna dynamics following large‐scale seagrass restoration in an exposed environment

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Seagrass meadows are vital habitats, modifying hydrodynamic energy flows and sustaining biodiversity in the benthic environment. As such, there is a growing interest in using seagrass as a nature‐based solution for coastal adaptation. However, planting seagrass in hydrodynamically exposed environments is challenging, and the trajectories and timescales

The malacostracan fauna of two Arctic fjords (west Spitsbergen): the diversity and distribution patterns of its pelagic and benthic components

Oceanologia, 2017
This study examines the performance of pelagic and benthic Malacostraca in two glacial fjords of west Spitsbergen: Kongsfjorden, strongly influenced by warm Atlantic waters, and Hornsund which, because of the strong impact of the cold Sørkapp Current ...

Trap‐dependence in capture–recapture studies: empirical evidence in vertebrates and biological meaning

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Capture–recapture (CR) models have been used for decades to estimate population size and demographic rates in natural populations from the monitoring of individuals. One of the most frequent deviations from assumptions required in CR studies is the immediate trap‐dependence that corresponds to the correlation between capture events. We review empirical

Inter-year consistencies and discrepancies on intestinal microbiota for overwintering relict gulls: correlations with food composition and implications for environmental adaptation

Frontiers in Microbiology
The gut microbiota of migratory birds is influenced by their food choices, and exploring the potential relationship between diet composition and gut microbiota can help better protect related species. By integrating non-invasive sampling techniques, high-

External Abnormalities and Body Deformities of Noble Crayfish (Malacostraca, Astacidae: Astacus astacus) of West Carpathian Massive (Slovakia): Possible Causes for this Phenomenon

Ekológia (Bratislava), 2022
Astacus astacus (Linnaeus, 1758) is a vulnerable species. Through comprehensive monitoring, we have determined the current spatial distribution of the populations in two streams of the Western Carpathian Massif.

How Host Phylogeny and Diet Shape the Specificity and Specificity Diversity of Animal Gut Microbiomes

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
By identifying unique/enriched microbial species across taxa and diet types in 318 animal species with our SSD (specificity and specificity diversity) framework, we demonstrated that host phylogeny and diet are joint drivers of microbial specificity compositional heterogeneity, potentially linking the macroecological pattern of phylosymbiosis with the ...

Indigenous peoples and local community reports of climate change impacts on biodiversity

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Climate change impacts on biodiversity have been primarily studied through ecological research methods, largely ignoring other knowledge systems. Indigenous and local knowledge systems include rich observations of changes in biodiversity that can inform climate change adaptation planning and environmental stewardship.
